The region’s crown jewel is the serene Bon Echo Provincial Park , 80km due north of Napanee. One of eastern Ontario’s largest preserves, Bon Echo lures artists and adventurers alike, who come looking for a piece of untainted beauty. The park’s biggest highlight is the 1.5km sheer rock face known as Masinaw Rock . The granite formation sharply juts out of Mazinaw Lake and features the largest visible collection of aboriginal pictographs in all of Canada. The glyphs are best seen from a canoe.
